This trip next Saturday is going to whack your annual mileage up mate

Are you stopping to clean on the way?

Cant find "Navigate via jet-washes" option on Tom-Tom.......... :-(

Use your excellent wrapping skills to wrap your car up for the journey, then unwrap when you arrive... problem solved!

So....if i was to fit Eibach springs for some minor lows and then want some minor widening of the wheel-track too (To avoid stone-rash on rear arches, fitting mud-flaps, too much extra load on bearings etc): What do we think about these for the rear:

(Makes the actual track wider by 20mm overall - without placing extra load directly on the wheel bearings)



And then these for the front:

(Makes the actual track wider by 10mm overall)

Bearing in mind i'm only lowering by a small amount, these would seem a good way to only widen by a small amount ?

The rear axle spacers are on my shopping list for the new year when hopefully I get coilies and adjustable top mounts.
I'll keep a keen eye on your front spacers as I'm undecided on using them or not. Stance v performance

Enjoyable weekend here....pottering around outside in the winter sunshine:


Carbon inlet badge fitted this weekend, polished it up - and under the hood cleaned:



Seat back in with beefed up drivers side upper bolster; interior cleaned within an inch of its life. Not often i get to see the seats - as they live life with a cover on. White highlights and dirty work clothes not being a good mix !



Knob-warmer "fitted" (No tools required !) :



Went out for a little drive this morning and bedded in the new brakes a bit more - starting to feel good :



And the obligatory Sunday clean today:



Lows next. Can i manage to complete before this coming weekends meet-up........

Lovely as always Shuv! I really do like that interior with the orange highlights, great stuff!

 

[Dystant]

Only just noticed you've even got a yellow cable tie to tie your MAP sensor down, brilliant!

 

[Gordini]

Love the knob warmer You'll have no paint left if you keep cleaning her so much!

I'm going to be the highest Clio in the car park I know it...:excited:

I'll have a friendly £1 wager i'm higher than you @Big Ben ? Think mine had "Stilts" as an option from the factory. Even if your close to mine - as least i wont look so stupid when parked up if we're next to each other.......

Springs / spacers are turning into a bit of a minefield. No chance of being on before Sat.

what a touch with the little orange hat..love it

I'm really going to have to find time to do a Sunday clean, if not just take a trip to Lowestoft and leave it on someone's drive

This is Lowestoft. Leave it on my drive and all your likely to find on your return is 4 missing wheels

[jasonlovesfrench]

Looks superb dude, all the hard work is paying off there

 

[Sean197]

Looking good, liking the engine bay. That timing belt cover needs a going over with a small wire/brass brush and some metal polish though

 

[sevenfourate]

Toasty warm this morning: didnt you think..........

 

[Dystant]

That is amazing Shuv! Best addition to your car yet

 

[Pav]

gotta be the best mod so far...nothing beats keeping your knob warm

 

[sevenfourate]

Some 'others' with a sense of fun.....yay !
